AW (NBR): Kitchen remodel

[mtnmomma13]

DH and I are totally gutting and redoing our kitchen/living area. We are knocking down two walls and re-flooring/painting our entire upstairs living area. We start demo the end of this month, but just got word our new appliances came in and should be delivered this week! So while I'll be kitchen-less for about 6 weeks, I get to chuck my crappy stove and dishwasher and use awesome new ones for at least a month.

I'm a sad person to get this excited over appliances!

Do you have any inspiration pictures you can share?!
No shame in the excitement, remodeling is FUN (but hard, but FUN!)

Woohoo! I love anything organizing, remodeling, etc. My pinterest is full of it.

No way, it is not sad. One day H and I walked around all the appliance stores at the mall and gawked at how cool appliances can be.

Are you going to take before and afters? That's some major "nesting"

[jumpingpuddles]

Agreed. Appliances are awesome. Not really an appliance, but I still get a thrill every time I get out my Dyson, and that thing is 4 years old. Can't wait to see pics when it's done!

We redid our kitchen a few years ago now...knocked down a wall...Luuuurrrve it!! And I still love my new appliances! Although I'm no cook and still am not sure how or why you would use the convection setting on the oven. I hear it's awesome. We only have electric running to our house so no gas cooktoop. But I'll be honest, I got an induction...LOVE it! It is really great!

You will have to share picts lady!!!

I will definitely share pics, before and after snoris! I didn't really nest with DS, so I guess I'm making up for it this time.

We are so excited that the floors and cabinet colors have finally been decided. Let's see if I can get the pics from Houzz to work. In general...the look will be similar to this (ours will have more natural light):


The island will be a medium gray and the walls will be a lighter gray (mindful and repose grays from Sherwin Williams if anyone loves paint colors!). We're doing a light granite counter top, but I can't find any great pics of it, and a variable width wood floor that is on the darker side with some cool undertones (no browns/reds).

We are still undecided about a back splash so that will be a game time decision. 

ETA: Yay! Finally got one to work.

That is gorgeous!

Woo! I love remodeling projects. I'm trying to convince my husband that we need to add a bigger closet and en suite bath to our master bedroom this year. I hope yours goes well! Your inspiration photo is beautiful!

That's going to be so much fun!
